Yeah it was definitly the drivers, I played with every cvar, and command listed to no avail. I even monkeyed with the driver settings still nothing. SO... I uninstalled them and re-installed the original oem drivers off the 3dfx disk and everything is back to normal.
The drivers themselves are totaly rewriten versions, supposedly able to work with all the newer games in opengl, and d3d. My guess is the guy didnt spend too much time working on support for older games. btw what are the minimal system requirments for fitzquake? It's mentioned in readme that FQ is supposed to run if you're able to run glquake.
well, glquake runs with my 12 mb voodoo2 and fitzquake doesn't. it's supposed to work with the same hardware that runs glquake, but in practice its memory usage is a bit higher. What happens when you try to run it?
Bruce Shelley, senior game designer at Ensemble Studios/Microsoft Game Studios, taught earlier this month at The Guildhall at SMU. The guest lecturer at Wednesday night�s practicum, Shelley pulled from his many years of experience in the industry to teach Guildhall students what he calls the �Guidelines for Developing Successful Games.� Shelley has worked on games including both Age of Empires and Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings as well as the original editions of Railroad Tycoon and Civilization (with Sid Meier at Microprose).

perhaps another option of 'delete' should be added to news thread approval?
in any case, if this continues, we should contact the webmaster of the site, all the guildhall ones have been coming from their ip (dns confirms), and this is pretty much a step below spam. It looks strange: the first second I see the console and then it turns red and strange pictures start to run (these pictures are large symbols that should be shown in the bottom of the screen - player's head, numbers etc)
I may send you a screenshot if you want not stupid.
That guild hall shit is just a pathetic ploy for us to apply to an expensive school that is not "accredited". I think most of the people that have been around since Peej n' Fribs and the QBoard will have a decent enough time making it into the industry. Currently installed on my computer:
Quake (various engines) Quake II (incl. KMQuake engine, very nice) Quake III Half Life (incl. Opposing Force) Unreal (incl. Return to Na Pali) Unreal Tournament Blood System Shock 2 ZDoom The Sims Could somebody please stop me before I go and get Max Payne the first chance I get? I'm running out of disk space here! that's the joy of upgrading. I had about 20 games on my HD when I went from my p2 to p3 a couple of years ago. And they're still there thanks to the big HD.
Oh yeah, if you actually have UT installed, may I recommend the SP packs Operation na Pali and Xidia Gold. Indeed. Fucking spamming cunts. (I'm aware that this post contributes even less than the spam while being more profane. But I'm allowed to dammit :)
At least the Guildhall is relevant, as long we arn't now hooked up to a bot with no off switch. I could type for pages on crap and that wouldn't be spam, but
spentron: it's not func_msgboard news, which is about amature mapping, not game design. Not 'spam' per-say, but close as it's off-topic and they're submitting every update they do... if news'd, we'd basically have their front page as news here, with a speedmap pack every so often.
Add to your list:
Blood2 Deus Ex Thief 1&2 (which I have yet to play o_O) Sin & Wages of Shogo Gunman Chronicles Blue Shift (the other halflife expansion) Hexen 1&2 Diablo 1&2 Warcraft3 Neverwinter Nights (plus the 2 expansions) And numerous others Ive tried and cant remember... anyone got that number for GAA?

Hexen II, SiN, Blood2 - already got 'em.
Deus Ex - didn't really like the sneaking part in the tutorial (couldn't complete it). Farg that. Max Payne, Kingpin, RTCW, Alice - well, maybe later. Hard drive first. I have too many FPS games anyway. Is Silent Hill 2 available on PC?
